Casmin had only just turned eighteen the previous week and already her parents were hassling her to get a job and move out. There were daily arguments about everything and anything- this morning they had argued about the window being left open on the latch, which of course ended with Casmin crying again, a frequent result. She only wanted to listen to the thunderstorm that had begun in the early hours of the morning.

Manifesting 101: for students who desperately need a change.
Manifesting 101: for students who desperately need a change. Moving into student accommodation really highlighted to me why I wanted to stay at my actual home so bad, it is so strange here and everything is a clinical, off white colour. The whole place reeks of feet, old food and a faint punge of cigarette smoke. Nice. I wish I could stay at my own home but I have had to go to university finally, apparently I can’t have another gap year which seems ridiculous to me. I was completely wrongfully accused of spending all of my money and still not having a job, which was not acceptable for my parents. I argued that I had a job, it was merely unpaid. My mother didn’t like that I reminded her of that. They cut off my allowance until I prove to them that I am working hard.
